About me

"Green energy costs too much, but fossil fuels cost significantly more."

Dr Eleanya Nduka researches energy, climate change and health. His research provides insights into energy transitions and how people value negative health spillovers. Recently, his research links energy use to well-being and explores possible speedy energy transitions using nudges. He received a PhD in Economics from the University of Exeter under the supervision of Surajeet Chakravarty and Brit Grosskopf. Eleanya currently serves on the editorial board of the Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences.
